The lights dim down and the show starts playing. She's watching anxiously as she paints a picture of how it ends. It soon becomes clear this is no regular movie. This is a layout of how she's been living. There's really no end since she hasn't died. At least not physically, not yet. Mentally she's fucked but she can admit that she knows it. All her family wants is their precious Bug that seems to have gone missing. It's clear they're not fond of the girl who surfaced. She still goes by Alisha; then again Ashley is fine also. Bug isn't gone she's just lost. Alisha lost her in the darkness. Afraid and alone, Alisha was vulnerable. There's an unknown amount of creatures that could be lurking. In fact, I already know there are. There's thousands unattended just quietly crawling gawking in awe. All such things we know to be dangerous. All such things have been stamped with caution so when they turn on their light to get you in their trap; you'll see the mark and think twice more. Surprisingly, none are interested to make her their prey. There's a reason this is happening. A predator more horrifying is lurking beyond the shadows. He's chosen her so others must retreat. She's locked in his sights unknowingly so. Had she knew were her friend was she'd already be home. Instead she kept walking causing herself to now be lost and alone. It's starting to get cold and her bones shake with no control. He's waiting to make his move. There's always a perfect time. He continues his hunt assuring he's out of her view. A few moments later is when he allows for his presence to be known. Not far behind her a sublte moan is heard. Dead in her tracks now unable to move; she whispers "Whose there"? Praying it's just a trick being played on her by her mind. With little luck of that prayer being heard the creature replies back with "It's okay. Please don't be frightened"....
